Wildthing,
dynamat is not designed to block or absorb heat. It is for vibration damping. A thermal/acoustic foam will stop heat, several heat shield products advertise this capability but beware the marketing hype. To really block heat well, you will need something between the heat and you, dynamat wont do this very well or very long if the temps are high enough. 300 degrees or thereabout. Ceramic heat pads work the best but are expensive.

Hmm, check the Dynamat website - they definitely market it to keep heat out of the passenger compartment. I think it will definitely have an effect on temperature, but maybe not as much as the other products you recommend.Wildthing,

I'm surprised to hear about people getting cut on Dynamat - I never had a problem with this when I installed it on my car...

I actually got another deep Dynamat cut last night while doing the inside of my 55's Dash.
You think I would learn to wear gloves by now
